TON BOATING MEN ARE DoISG-APPRoscHrNG RE-
GATTAs-lNTEREsTING NOTES ABOUT ARCHERY.
The Washington baseball team Is not making
the record that Its friends wish or think It capable
oil making. The Statesmen do not seem to play
together as a team, with any regularity and the
consequence IS the defeats are very numerous and
the victories scarce. Three games lost to Detroit
IL the record thus far this week. The last OF these
three contests was close and exciting, but the
other TWO were walkovers for the Wolverines.
To-day they meet the PfttSburg team, and
as Doth clubs are about equally demoralized,
oy constant defeats, close game will doubtless
result. IL the Washington team were not formed
or such excellent material their irregular playing
would not excite so much surprise. There must
De something radically wrong about the team.
Either the men are TOO much for the management
or vice versa AT any rate there is q general i'm
preston among the public that the best possible
work is not being obtained from the men. Rumors
or important changes In this and other teams
doing unsatisfactory work are stin rtfe Philadel-
phia Is all torn up, and the men do not know
what TO expect next Daily, VINO was
added to the payrOlls of the Statesmen this week.
Is a valuable acquisition, and the Philadelphia
people think they have lost one or their best men.
StilI, if his addition TO the Wash1ngton's causes
the change in the personnel OF the team that Is
proposed, be will have 10 do phenomenal work to
satisfy the public. 1t Is semi officially announced
that Daily will play right field permanently, and
that Shoch will be planted In his old garden over
by the left fence. a temporary change OF this
character VIII be all r1gnt, out III Carroll Is TO De
LEFT out OF the regular nine Tor any length of time
the public will be greatly disappointed. Pitchers
do more than others TO win gaines by preventing
the Oiher side from hitting The ball, but Carroll
does more now than others To win games by max
Ing runs. The team play with much more vim
and spirit when he Is among them. Temporary
fncapacity for active service should not require
permanent retirement. The announcement may
b. wrong or there may be good and SUFFICIENT rea-
son, but the public likes TO see Carroll play ball.
Without question he has done the best service OF
any man in the team.
THE GAMES YESTERDAY
resulted in a couple OF surprises Washington and
Detroit did not play. Indianapolis scored VIC
tory over Philadelphia-6 to 5. Chicago defeated
the wOuld-be champions from Boston by a score OF
